FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The invention relates to novel compounds and their use to treat diseases.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Cancer is prevalent: In the United States, the probability of developing invasive cancer is 38% for females and 46% for males that live to be 70 years older and older. There will be about 1.4 million new cases of cancer in 2006. Although the five year survival rate for cancer is now 65%, up from about 50% in the mid-nineteen seventies, cancer is deadly. It is estimated that 565,000 people in the United States will die from cancer in 2006. (American Cancer Society, Surveillance Research, 2006). Although numerous treatments are available for various cancers, the fact remains that many cancers remain uncurable, untreatable, and/or become resistant to standard therapies. Thus, there is a need for new cancer treatments.

In another aspect, the invention is directed to pharmaceutical compositions comprising the compounds of the invention, in particular, one or more compounds of Formula I-III and one or more pharmaceutical excipients, for use in treatment or prevention of diseases that are HSP90-dependent.

In another aspect, the invention features a method of treating an individual having an HSP90-mediated disorder by administering to the individual a pharmaceutical composition that comprises a pharmaceutically effective amount of one or more compounds of Formulae I-III and/or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

In one aspect, the invention provides a method for treating an individual having a disorder chosen from inflammatory diseases, infections, autoimmune disorders, stroke, ischemia, cardiac disorders, neurological disorders, fibrogenetic disorders, proliferative disorders, tumors, leukemias, neoplasms, cancers, carcinomas, metabolic diseases, and malignant disease. In a specific aspect, the method involves identifying a patient in need of treatment and administering to

In yet another aspect, the invention provides a method for treating an individual having a fibrogenetic disorder, such as, for example, scleroderma, polymyositis, systemic lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, liver cirrhosis, keloid formation, interstitial nephritis and pulmonary fibrosis.

The present invention also includes a therapeutic method comprising administering to an animal (e.g., a patient, in need of treatment) a therapeutically effective amount of one or more compounds of Formulae I-III and/or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. The therapeutic method is useful to treat cancer, which is a group of diseases characterized by the uncontrolled growth and spread of abnormal cells. Such diseases include, but are not limited to, Hodgkin's disease, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, acute lymphocytic leukemia, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, multiple myeloma, neuroblastoma, breast carcinoma, ovarian carcinoma, lung carcinoma, Wilms' tumor, cervical carcinoma, testicular carcinoma, soft-tissue sarcoma, primary macroglobulinemia, bladder carcinoma, chronic granulocytic leukemia, primary brain carcinoma, malignant melanoma, small-cell lung carcinoma, stomach carcinoma, colon carcinoma, malignant pancreatic insulinoma, malignant carcinoid carcinoma, choriocarcinoma, mycosis fungoides, head or neck carcinoma, osteogenic sarcoma, pancreatic carcinoma, acute granulocytic leukemia, hairy cell leukemia, neuroblastoma, rhabdomyosarcoma, Kaposi's sarcoma, genitourinary carcinoma, thyroid carcinoma, esophageal carcinoma, malignant hypercalcemia, cervical hyperplasia, renal cell carcinoma, endometrial carcinoma, polycythemia vera, essential thrombocytosis, adrenal cortex carcinoma, skin cancer, and prostatic carcinoma.

Typically, compounds according to Formulae I-III can be effective at an amount of from about 0.01 μg/kg to about 100 mg/kg per day based on total body weight. The active ingredient may be administered at once, or may be divided into a number of smaller doses to be administered at predetermined intervals of time. The suitable dosage unit for each administration can be, e.g., from about 1 μg to about 2000 mg, preferably from about 5 μg to about 1000 mg.

It should be understood that the dosage ranges set forth above are exemplary only and are not intended to limit the scope of this invention. The therapeutically effective amount for each active compound can vary with factors including but not limited to the activity of the compound used, stability of the active compound in the patient's body, the severity of the conditions to be alleviated, the total weight of the patient treated, the route of administration, the ease of absorption, distribution, and excretion of the active compound by the body, the age and sensitivity of the patient to be treated, and the like, as will be apparent to a skilled artisan. The amount of administration can be adjusted as the various factors change over time.

In the pharmaceutical compositions, the active agents can be in any pharmaceutically acceptable salt form. As used herein, the term “pharmaceutically acceptable salts” refers to the relatively non-toxic, organic or inorganic salts of the active compounds, including inorganic or organic acid addition salts of the compound. Examples of salts of basic active ingredient compounds include, but are not limited to, hydrochloride salts, hydrobromide salts, sulfate salts, bisulfate salts, nitrate salts, acetate salts, phosphate salts, nitrate salts, oxalate salts, valerate salts, oleate salts, borate salts, benzoate salts, laurate salts, stearate salts, palmitate salts, lactate salts, tosylate salts, citrate salts, maleate salts, succinate salts, tartrate salts, napththylate salts, fumarate salts, mesylate salts, laurylsuphonate salts, glucoheptonate salts, and the like. See, e.g., Berge, et al. J. Pharm. Sci., 66:1-19 (1977). Examples of salts of acidic active ingredient compounds include, e.g., alkali metal salts, alkaline earth salts, and ammonium salts. Thus, suitable salts may be salts of aluminum, calcium, lithium, magnesium, potassium, sodium and zinc. In addition, organic salts may also be used including, e.g., salts of lysine, N,N′-dibenzylethylenediamine, chloroprocaine, choline, diethanolamine, ethylenediamine, meglumine (N-methylglucamine), procaine and tris.

For oral delivery, the active compounds can be incorporated into a formulation that includes pharmaceutically acceptable carriers such as binders (e.g., gelatin, cellulose, gum tragacanth), excipients (e.g., starch, lactose), lubricants (e.g., magnesium stearate, silicon dioxide), disintegrating agents (e.g., alginate, Primogel, and corn starch), and sweetening or flavoring agents (e.g., glucose, sucrose, saccharin, methyl salicylate, and peppermint). The formulation can be orally delivered in the form of enclosed gelatin capsules or compressed tablets. Capsules and tablets can be prepared in any conventional techniques. The capsules and tablets can also be coated with various coatings known in the art to modify the flavors, tastes, colors, and shapes of the capsules and tablets. In addition, liquid carriers such as fatty oil can also be included in capsules.

Suitable oral formulations can also be in the form of suspension, syrup, chewing gum, wafer, elixir, and the like. If desired, conventional agents for modifying flavors, tastes, colors, and shapes of the special forms can also be included. In addition, for convenient administration by enteral feeding tube in patients unable to swallow, the active compounds can be dissolved in an acceptable lipophilic vegetable oil vehicle such as olive oil, corn oil and safflower oil.

The active compounds can also be administered parenterally in the form of solution or suspension, or in lyophilized form capable of conversion into a solution or suspension form before use. In such formulations, diluents or pharmaceutically acceptable carriers such as sterile water and physiological saline buffer can be used. Other conventional solvents, pH buffers, stabilizers, anti-bacteria agents, surfactants, and antioxidants can all be included. For example, useful components include sodium chloride, acetates, citrates or phosphates buffers, glycerin, dextrose, fixed oils, methyl parabens, polyethylene glycol, propylene glycol, sodium bisulfate, benzyl alcohol, ascorbic acid, and the like. The parenteral formulations can be stored in any conventional containers such as vials and ampoules.

Routes of topical administration include nasal, bucal, mucosal, rectal, or vaginal applications. For topical administration, the active compounds can be formulated into lotions, creams, ointments, gels, powders, pastes, sprays, suspensions, drops and aerosols. Thus, one or more thickening agents, humectants, and stabilizing agents can be included in the formulations. Examples of such agents include, but are not limited to, polyethylene glycol, sorbitol, xanthan gum, petrolatum, beeswax, or mineral oil, lanolin, squalene, and the like. A special form of topical administration is delivery by a transdermal patch. Methods for preparing transdermal patches are disclosed, e.g., in Brown, et al., Annual Review of Medicine, 39:221-229 (1988), which is incorporated herein by reference.

Subcutaneous implantation for sustained release of the active compounds may also be a suitable route of administration. This entails surgical procedures for implanting an active compound in any suitable formulation into a subcutaneous space, e.g., beneath the anterior abdominal wall. See, e.g., Wilson et al., J. Clin. Psych. 45:242-247 (1984). Hydrogels can be used as a carrier for the sustained release of the active compounds. Hydrogels are generally known in the art. They are typically made by crosslinking high molecular weight biocompatible polymers into a network, which swells in water to form a gel like material. Preferably, hydrogels are biodegradable or biosorbable. For purposes of this invention, hydrogels made of polyethylene glycols, collagen, or poly(glycolic-co-L-lactic acid) may be useful. See, e.g., Phillips et al., J. Pharmaceut. Sci., 73:1718-1720 (1984).

The active compounds can also be conjugated, to a water soluble non-immunogenic non-peptidic high molecular weight polymer to form a polymer conjugate. For example, an active compound is covalently linked to polyethylene glycol to form a conjugate. Typically, such a conjugate exhibits improved solubility, stability, and reduced toxicity and immunogenicity. Thus, when administered to a patient, the active compound in the conjugate can have a longer half-life in the body, and exhibit better efficacy. See generally, Burnham, Am. J. Hosp. Pharm., 15:210-218 (1994). PEGylated proteins are currently being used in protein replacement therapies and for other therapeutic uses. For example, PEGylated interferon (PEG-INTRON A®) is clinically used for treating Hepatitis B. PEGylated adenosine deaminase (ADAGEN®) is being used to treat severe combined immunodeficiency disease (SCIDS). PEGylated L-asparaginase (ONCAPSPAR®) is being used to treat acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). It is preferred that the covalent linkage between the polymer and the active compound and/or the polymer itself is hydrolytically degradable under physiological conditions. Such conjugates known as “prodrugs” can readily release the active compound inside the body. Controlled release of an active compound can also be achieved by incorporating the active ingredient into microcapsules, nanocapsules, or hydrogels generally known in the art. Other pharmaceutically acceptable prodrugs of the compounds of this invention include, but are not limited to, esters, carbonates, thiocarbonates, N-acyl derivatives, N-acyloxyalkyl derivatives, quaternary derivatives of tertiary amines, N-Mannich bases, Schiff bases, aminoacid conjugates, phosphate esters, metal salts and sulfonate esters.

Liposomes can also be used as carriers for the active compounds of the present invention. Liposomes are micelles made of various lipids such as cholesterol, phospholipids, fatty acids, and derivatives thereof. Various modified lipids can also be used. Liposomes can reduce the toxicity of the active compounds, and increase their stability. Methods for preparing liposomal suspensions containing active ingredients therein are generally known in the art. See, e.g., U.S. Pat. No. 4,522,811; Prescott, Ed., Methods in Cell Biology, Volume XIV, Academic Press, New York, N.Y. (1976).

The active compounds can also be administered in combination with another active agent that synergistically treats or prevents the same symptoms or is effective for another disease or symptom in the patient treated so long as the other active agent does not interfere with or adversely affect the effects of the active compounds of this invention. Such other active agents include but are not limited to anti-inflammation agents, antiviral agents, antibiotics, antifungal agents, antithrombotic agents, cardiovascular drugs, cholesterol lowering agents, anti-cancer drugs, hypertension drugs, and the like.

Examples of antineoplastic agents that can be used in combination with the compounds and methods of the present invention include, in general, and as appropriate, alkylating agents, anti-metabolites, epidophyllotoxins, antineoplastic enzymes, topoisomerase inhibitors, procarbazines, mitoxantrones, platinum coordination complexes, biological response modifiers and growth inhibitors, hormonal/anti-hormonal therapeutic agents and haematopoietic growth factors. Exemplary classes of antineoplastic include the anthracyclines, vinca drugs, mitomycins, bleomycins, cytotoxic nucleosides, epothilones, discodermolides, pteridines, diynenes and podophyllotoxins. Particularly useful members of those classes include, for example, caminomycin, daunorubicin, aminopterin, methotrexate, methopterin, dichloromethotrexate, mitomycin C, porfiromycin, 5-fluorouracil, 6-mercaptopurine, gemcitabine, cytosine arabinoside, podophyllotoxin or podo-phyllotoxin derivatives such as etoposide, etoposide phosphate or teniposide, melphalan, vinblastine, vincristine, leurosidine, vindesine, leurosine, paclitaxel and the like. Other useful antineoplastic agents include estramustine, carboplatin, cyclophosphamide, bleomycin, gemcitibine, ifosamide, melphalan, hexamethyl melamine, thiotepa, cytarabin, idatrexate, trimetrexate, dacarbazine, L-asparaginase, camptothecin, CPT-11, topotecan, ara-C, bicalutamide, flutamide, leuprolide, pyridobenzoindole derivatives, interferons and interleukins.

The 8-bromoadenine 2 was prepared by known method (US 2005/0049263). The compound 4 may be obtained either by nucleophilic attack of the arylthiolate anion on bromoadenine (US 2005/0049263) or by copper-catalyzed coupling of aryliodides with mercaptoadenine 3 using CuI/neocuproine as catalyst and t-BuONa/DMF as the base/solvent combination at 60-110° C. (J. Med. Chem., 2005, 48, 2892). Alternatively 4 can be prepared by palladium catalysed coupling of aryl halides with mercaptoadenine 3. The derivatives of 8-arylsulfanyl adenine 4 were alkylated using various alkylating agents in the presence of base at 30-110° C. in DMF for 1-18 h. Formation of the mixture of regioisomers 5 and 6 were observed by HPLC and LC-MS analysis. At the end of this period solvent was evaporated or after aqueous and organic work up, the organic layer was collected and was dried over Na₂SO₄. After removal organic solvent and preparative HPLC [X-Terra prep-RP18 10 um, 19×250 mm (waters), Mobile phase: solvent A: Water HPLC grade containing 0.01% TFA, and solvent B: acetonitrile containing 0.01% TFA, general eluting gradient—solvent B 15% to 80% over 15 to 25 minutes run time] purification, N-3 and N-9 alkylated products are isolated as a trifluoroacetate salt.

General Method of Preparation of Intermediates

Intermediate 1 8-(6-Bromo-benzo[1,3]dioxol-5-ylsulfanyl)-9H-purin-6-ylamine

To 250 mL flask was charged with 8-mercaptoadenine (2.00 g, 11.98 mmol), 5,6-dibromo-benzo-[1,3]dioxole (6.70 g, 24.0 mmol), Pd₂dba₃ (0.548 g, 0.599 mmol), Xantphos (0.693 g, 1.20 mmol), K₂CO₃ (3.31 g, 23.95 mmol), and dry dioxane (25 mL). The resulting mixture was heated at 100° C. for 16 h under nitrogen. After cooling, the reaction mixture was filtered and washed with a 2/2/0.5 mixture of CH₂Cl₂, EtOAc, and MeOH. The combined filtrates were concentrated in vacuo. The dark brown residue was purified by chromatography on SiO₂ (CH₂Cl₂/EtOAc/MeOH, 2/2/0/5) and subsequent recrystallization from MeOH provided the title compound (1.4 g, 32%). ¹H NMR (DMSO-d₆) δ 8.08 (s, 1H), 7.38 (s, 1H), 7.23 (s, 1H), 6.12 (s, 2H).

8-(Benzo[1,3]dioxol-5-ylsulfanyl)-9-phenethyl-1,9-dihydro-purin-6-one Step 1: 6-Chloro-N⁴-phenethyl-pyrimidine-4,5-diamine

To a flask with dichloropyrimidine (2.8 g, 17.0 mmol) in n-BuOH (0.1 M) was added amine (2.3 mL, 18.6 mmol) and TEA (4.7 mL, 33.9 mmol). The resulting reaction mixture was then heated to 120° C. until starting material was gone as judged by TLC (ca. 4 h). The reaction was then cooled to rt and poured into hexanes at which point a solid formed. The solid was filtered off using a fritted funnel and the solid cake washed with hexanes. The solid (3.8 g, 90% yield) was used without further purification. ¹H NMR (CDCl₃) δ 8.07 (s, 1H), 7.38-7.21 (m, 5H), 5.29 (bs, 1H), 3.81 (t, J=7.1 Hz, 2H), 3.60 (bs, 2H), 2.97 (t, J=7.3 Hz, 2H).

Step 2: 9-Phenethyl-1,9-dihydro-purin-6-one

To a flask with chloropyrimidine product above (1.0 g, 4.0 mmol) in formamide (0.25 M) was added 2 mL of formic acid. The resulting reaction mixture was then heated to 175° C. for 4 h at which time HPLC showed consumption of starting material. The reaction was allowed to cool and water (0.80 M) is added. The resulting solid is filtered off using a fritted funnel and the solid cake washed with toluene. The solid (0.6 g, 64%) was then used in the next reaction without further purification. ¹H NMR (DMSO-d₆) δ 12.29 (s, 1H), 8.04 (s, 1H), 7.90 (s, 1H), 7.31-7.7.10 (m, 5H), 4.39 (t, J=7.0 Hz, 2H), 3.13 (t, J=7.3 Hz, 2H).

Step 3: 8-Bromo-9-phenethyl-1,9-dihydro-purin-6-one

To a solution of purinone from step 2 (0.29 g, 1.21 mmol) from above reaction in dioxane (0.1M) is added NBS (0.32 g, 1.81 mmol). The resulting reaction mixture was heated to 105° C. until HPLC shows consumption of starting material (ca. 2 h). The reaction was cooled to rt and purified by MPLC using a solvent gradient of 0-20% MeOH/CH₂Cl₂. The product containing fractions were collected and concentrated to provide the desired product (0.22 g, 57% yield). ¹H NMR (DMSO-d₆) δ 12.49 (s, 1H), 8.08 (s, 1H), 7.30-7.21 (m, 3H), 7.10-7.04 (m, 2H), 4.36 (t, J=7.0 Hz, 2H), 3.17 (t, J=7.3 Hz, 2H).

Step 4: 8-(Benzo[1,3]dioxol-5-ylsulfanyl)-9-phenethyl-1,9-dihydro-purin-6-one

To a solution of sodium hydride (0.035 g, 0.882 mmol, 60% in mineral oil) in DMF (0.1 M) at 0° C. was added the desired thiophenol (0.140 g, 0.882 mmol). The reaction mixture was allowed to warm to rt and mixed 15 min at which time the bromo-purinone from step 3 (0.113 g, 0.353 mmol) from the above reaction was added. The resulting reaction mixture was then heated to 90° C. overnight. The reaction was then cooled to rt, concentrated, and then purified by MPLC using 0-20% MeOH/CH₂Cl₂. The product containing fractions were collected and concentrated to provide the desired product (0.098 g, 71% yield). ¹H NMR (CDCl₃) δ 12.95 (s, 1H), 8.02 (s, 1H), 7.29-6.80 (m, 8H), 5.95 (s, 2H), 4.47 (t, J=7.4 Hz, 2H), 3.09 (t, J=7.4 Hz, 2H); LC-MS [M+H]⁺ 393.0.

Example 225

To a solution of the purine from step 4 (0.088 g, 0.266 mmol) from above reaction in AcOH (0.2 M) was added bromine (0.02 mL, 0.319 mmol). The resulting reaction mixture was covered with aluminum foil and allowed to mix at rt until HPLC shows consumption of starting material. The resulting solution is diluted with 150 mL of toluene and concentrated. This process was repeated two more times and the resulting solid was purified by preparative HPLC to provide the desired product as a white solid (0.059 g, 46% yield). ¹H NMR (DMSO-d₆) δ 12.42 (s, 1H), 8.09 (m, 1H), 7.39 (s, 1H), 7.25-7.17 (m, 3H), 7.10-7.04 (m, 2H), 6.81 (s, 1H), 6.05 (s, 2H), 4.39 (t, J=7.1 Hz, 2H), 3.03 (t, J=7.1 Hz, 2H); LC-MS [M+H]⁺ 472.3.

The reaction mixture was then diluted with CH₂Cl₂, washed with brine, dried (Na₂SO₄), filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. After standing for 10 h, the mixture was treated with CH₂Cl₂. The resulting solid was filtered, washed with EtOAc, and air-dried to afford the product (274 mg, 20%). The combined filtrates were concentrated and purified by column chromatography (CH₂Cl₂/EtOAc/MeOH=1/1/0.1 to 1/1/0.5) to give additional product (200 mg, 15%): ¹H NMR (DMSO) δ 8.18 (s, 1H), 7.95 (brs, 2H), 7.02 (d, J=8.8 Hz, 1H), 6.87 (dd, J=8.8, 3.2 Hz, 1H), 6.57 (d, J=3.2 Hz, 1H), 4.61 (t, J=6.0 Hz, 2H), 3.86 (t, J=6.0 Hz, 2H), 3.76 (s, 3H), 3.62 (s, 3H); TOF LC-MS [M+H]⁺ 410.0.

A solution of glutamide (10 mg, 0.091 mmol) in DMF (0.5 mL) was treated with NaH (4.3 mg, 0.11 mmol) at room temperature. After stirring for 15 min, a solution of step 1 intermediate (N-9) (34 mg, 0.083 mmol) in DMF (1 mL) was added dropwise to the solution of glutamide anion. The resulting mixture was heated at 60° C. for 10 h, cooled to room temperature and quenched with AcOH (10 μL). The reaction mixture was extracted with EtOAc, washed with brine, dried (Na₂SO₄), filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. The crude material was purified by preparative HPLC to afford the desired compound (8 mg) along with the elimination product 8-(2,5-dimethoxy-phenylsulfonyl)-9-vinyl-9H-purin-6-ylamine (10 mg). 1-(2-{6-Amino-8-[(2,5-dimethoxyphenyl)thio]-9H-purin-9-yl}ethyl)piperidine-2,6-dione. ¹H NMR (CD₃OD) δ 8.30 (s, 1H), 7.10 (d, J=2.8 Hz, 1H), 7.06 (d, J=8.8 Hz, 1H), 7.02 (dd, J=8.8, 2.8 Hz, 12H), 4.54-4.50 (m, 2H), 4.24-4.22 (m, 2H), 3.78 (s, 3H), 3.75 (s, 3H), 2.57 (t, J=6.8 Hz, 4H), 1.89 (quintet, J=6.8 Hz, 2H); TOF-MS [M+H]⁺ 443.1. 8-(2,5-dimethoxy-phenylsulfonyl)-9-vinyl-9H-purin-6-ylamine. ¹H NMR (DMSO-d₆) δ 8.24 (s, 1H), 7.57 (dd, J=15.6, 8.8 Hz, 1H), 7.03 (d, J=9.2 Hz, 1H), 6.87 (dd, J=9.2, 3.2 Hz, 1H), 6.43 (d, J=3.2 Hz, 1H), 6.39 (d, J=15.6 Hz, 1H), 5.24 (d, J=8.8 Hz, 1H), 3.76 (s, 3H), 3.61 (s, 3H).

Activity Examples

Binding Assay

Compound binding to purified Hsp90 was monitored using BODIPY-labeled geldanamycin (BODIPY-GM) in a fluorescence polarization assay adapted from Kim et al. (Journal of Biomolecular Screening 2004, 9(5):375-381). Compound dilutions (in 100% DMSO) were added to black-bottom 96-well plates (Greiner; 2% DMSO final), and equal volumes of BODIPY-GM (10 nM final) and purified human Hsp90 (Stressgen, SPP-770; 30 nM final) in assay buffer (20 mM HEPES-KOH pH 7.3, 50 mM KCl, 5 mM MgCl₂, 20 mM Na₂MoO₄, 0.01% NP-40, 0.1 mg/mL bovine gamma globulin [Invitrogen, P2045], 2 mM DTT) were added sequentially to yield a final volume of 50 microliters. Plates were incubated overnight at room temperature. Parallel and perpendicular fluorescence measurements were read (LJL BioSystems Analyst AD plate reader) with excitation/emission wavelengths of 485/530 nm. Background fluorescence (buffer only) was subtracted, and fluorescence polarization (FP) values, expressed in mP units, were calculated from parallel and perpendicular fluorescence readings as follows: FP=(parallel−perpendicular)/(parallel+perpendicular)*1000

Percent inhibition was calculated by normalizing the FP values to those obtained in parallel reactions containing DMSO and subtracting these normalized values from 100%. Intrinsic compound fluorescence was independently monitored, and FP data points confounded by compound fluorescence were excluded from the analysis.

Her2—Luciferase Assay

HCT116 cells stably transfected with a Her2 (kinase domain)-Luciferase fusion were seeded into black 96-well plates at 10,000 cells per well in 100 microliters (DMEM supplemented with 10% serum) and incubated overnight. Compound dilutions (in 100% DMSO) were added to individual wells (0.4% DMSO final), and plates were incubated for four hours. Plates were equilibrated to room temperature (5 min), 100 microliters Steady-Glo reagent (Promega #E2520) was added per well, and plates were incubated at room temperature for 5 minutes. Luminescence was then measured (TopCount, Perkin-Elmer).

Cytotoxicity Assay

HCT116 cells were seeded into black 96-well plates at 5,000 cells per well in 100 microliters (DMEM supplemented with 10% serum) and incubated overnight. Compound dilutions (in 100% DMSO) were added to individual wells (0.4% DMSO final), and plates were incubated for 72 hours. Plates were equilibrated to room temperature (5 min). Fifty microliters lysis buffer followed by 50 microliters substrate

solution (ATPLite [2 step], Perkin-Elmer, #601941) were added to each well, and plates were incubated at room temperature 5 minutes. Luminescence was then measured (TopCount, Perkin-Elmer).
